The transaction
Cosmotec Nonwovens manufactures specialist needle-punched and air-bonded materials from an eight-acre production site in Blackburn, England. Its bespoke products are used across geotextiles, filtration, construction and automotive applications, supported by technical manufacturing expertise and an ability to supply niche requirements with short lead times.
Headpoint Advisors advised Switzerland-headquartered Cha Technologies Group on the sale of Cosmotec to California-based Airtech Advanced Materials Group. Airtech serves aerospace, composites, automotive and defence customers through operations in the United States, Europe and Asia. The acquisition adds Cosmotec’s capabilities to Airtech’s international platform, strengthening its European nonwovens operation and expanding the range of specialist materials available to customers. The consideration was not disclosed.
